Im Dickicht der Stadt (In the thicket of the city)
In cooperation with the Climate School of the LMU MunichIn cooperation with the Climate School of the LMU Munich
Content description
The Residenztheater and the Climate School at LMU Munich invite you to join them on an expedition into the urban wilderness of our city. As part of a long-term collaboration, director Alexander Eisenach and actor Maximilian Grünewald are working with ensemble members and scientists from LMU to develop artistic formats that explore the relationship between humans and nature in a variety of ways. We welcome a renowned guest from the world of research to each event: from biology to Catholic theology – experience new perspectives and join in the discussion!
DICKICHT sees itself as a place of encounter and exchange. The Wittelsbacher Wiese directly behind the Marstall is transformed not only into a stage, but also into a summer bar with drinks, music and birdsong, which is open for you before and after the performances.
DICKICHT is indoors and outdoors. Intimate and public. It raises the question of coexistence. We want to explore, experience, discuss, celebrate, listen to the birds and the noise of the city.
We let trees, woodlice, fungi and CO2 speak and tell their stories. We experiment, observe and listen to what these new protagonists have to tell us – what will we answer them?
#4 Narrating
We dedicate this edition to those who have guided us through the thicket to get us this far: scientists. How does research change you? How do facts feel? And who actually still believes in climate change? The ensemble's performers explore these questions together with climatologists from LMU.
